Sodium chloride flush is used to clean out an intravenous (IV) catheter, which helps prevent blockage and removes any medicine left in the catheter area after you have received an IV infusion. Sodium chloride may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
This sterile saline solution is used to wash, flush, or rinse parts of the body (e.g., wounds) or medical supplies/equipment (e.g., dressings, catheters, drainage tubes). This product may also be mixed with other medications (e.g., neomycin/polymyxin B) to prepare a solution to flush/rinse parts of the body.
Sodium Chloride 0.45% Solution for Infusion is indicated for the treatment of hypertonic extracellular dehydration or hypovolaemia in cases where the intake of fluids and electrolytes by normal routes is not possible.
A moderate reduction in sodium chloride intake can lead to a small reduction in blood pressure. The American Heart Association recommends that the average daily consumption of sodium chloride not exceed 6 g; this may lower BP by 2-8 mm Hg.
